Skywatch Moon
November 23rd 2002

This year November weather was horrible. So, coming home late on November 23rd i was surprised that there was suddenly clear sky, good seeing and the moon in good position. So i moved my ETX125 out to the garden at my home in Ebreichsdorf Austria. After 1 hour when cooling of the scope was somehow done, i connected the Canon G1 camera together with the palmtop (for automatic remote release control) to the scope.After 2 hours of imaging suddenly fog drove in and stopped my intentions to move to Saturn for further imaging. Find below a selection of Moon images of this short but beautiful Moonwatch evening.

All Images have been captured with Meade ETX125EC Maksutov 5 inch Reflector and CANON G1 Digital Camera. All images are single Images. No stacking has been done. A few improvements with Adobe Photoshop have been done.
